The glass wall with dragon and phoenix pattern unearthed from the Jingling Mausoleum of Tang Xinzong in Nanling Village, Qianxian County, Shaanxi Province ( The picture is quoted from the "Complete Collection of Chinese Gold and Silver Glass Enamel 4 Glassware" Fig. 92 ). One side is decorated with dragon pattern and the other side is decorated with phoenix pattern. There is a cloud pattern opposite to dragon and phoenix. Due to the corrosion of the soil, the surface of the glass wall has formed a calcified layer. This suitable pattern decoration shows more freedom in technique than the geometric pattern decoration of the Han Dynasty.
